Musharraf: Bin Laden mission violated Pakistan
The Washington Times ^ | 5/2/2011 | Ashish Kumar Sen

Former Pakistani President Pervez Musharraf on Monday accused the U.S. of violating his country’s sovereignty by sending in special forces to kill Osama bin Laden.

“American troops coming across the border and taking action in one of our towns, that is Abbottabad, is not acceptable to the people of Pakistan. It is a violation of our sovereignty,” Mr. Musharraf told CNN-IBN, an Indian news channel.

He added that it would have been “far better if Pakistani Special Services Group had operated and conducted the mission. To that extent, the modality of handling it and executing the operation is not correct.”

Bin Laden was killed Sunday in a firefight with Navy SEALs in a million-dollar, fortified compound located in an affluent neighborhood in Abbottabad, about a two-hour drive from Pakistan’s capital, Islamabad.

Violating Pakistan's sovereignty? It could have easily been avoided, if Pakistan had helped more with the search for Bin Laden. After all, he was living in a million dollar property, in a place a couple of hours from Islamabad!

Mushy, if you think for 2 seconds that we will forget that you bastards were hiding him for the last few years, you are sorely mistaken.

You have a about a year and a ha;f to really ponder the implications of that. Ponder them well.

And those nukes in your country are considerably smaller than ours.

Yeah, these Paki-bastards have been hiding this swine knowing full well we’ve been hunting him down all the while receiving billions in aid from us.

If he feels that way he can give back the 18 billion + dollars we gave them, for all we know that money went to support Bin Laden in his compound.

STFU Moosharraf. It’s obvious to everyone that the Paki Gov has been protecting OBL. Your days are numbered A- hole.

Geez, this made me think about where is Fox News Paki Mansoor Ijaz?

Last article I read he was in cahoots with the the Pakis and was a large contributor to Obamas campaign.
